QR / THRU AXLE / BOOST 27.5" 650b (ETRTO 584x25) MTB Mountain Enduro Trail Bike Wheel Set 8/9/10/11/12 Speed - HG/Shimano Micro Spline/SRAM XD - 6x Pawls Sealed Bearings Disc Brake hubs - Tubeless Compatible

I bought this set of wheels for my MTB bike,but I wasn’t sure if they these are correct wheels for mi bike. I contacted madspeed7 team through their chat and they were very friendly and helpful. The answer came in les then 15 minutes as they promised even during a weekend. The wheels came also pretty quick. Thank you Madspeed7..

These were bought (July 2024) to refurbish a 2017 Cannondale 27.5” mountain bike (quick release, non-boost, 135mm O.L.D (rear), 146mm axle (rear), 8 speed, HG cassette, previous wheels- Etrto: 584x17).

The quality of the new wheels are excellent - strong, balanced, and roll forever once secured in the bikes’s dropouts. Cornering is much improved with the wider rims (25 upgraded from 17). The freehub sounds very healthy, although the part number is not clear beyond the Koozer Xm490 hub shell reference, or is the appropriate method for extracting the freehub - should a replacement be necessary

There was an initial compatibility issue at the installation because it appeared the rear wheels’ axle was only equal to the O.L.D. of the bike’s frame, but this was because I had not realised the necessary extension attachments were still connected to the protective transportation axle covers.

Seating my tires (2.3” and 2.25”) was a nightmare, but this was an issue with my technique.

Apart from minor setup complications (relating to my knowledge) I am very satisfied with the purchase, and build quality, and appreciate Madspeed’s detailed information on the website, and - more importantly- their provision of an option to upgrade an older bike.

Easy set up. Tubeless tires seated first time.
Wheels don't seem to spin freely, bearings a bit grippy - may just be bedding in?
Very satisfied overall though.

Good solid wheels Took tubeless tires no problem with the first inflation. About 150 - 200 g heavier then the Mavic crossride wheels I had previously however the Mavic wheels were 24 spoke and had continual problems. Size of nipples it’s slightly wider than a standard wheel, but this is not a problem as it only requires a different spoke tool, and the wheel has 32 spokes

Easy to fit the cassette and the free hub is fairly quiet. Overall I thought that the wheels were very good value though a little expensive, however I think that they are more solid than the Mavic wheels and will last longer. I have previously bought wheels from this company for an electric bike with 26” size and these wheels took extreme punishment over rocks slate and rough terrain at speeds in excess of 30 miles an hour. If these wheels I have just purchased Are strong (and it looks like they are) I will be delighted
